I think everyone is doing something with ics

So you see a post about a dev in another devs rom thread, so you reply excitedly and say he (the first dev, not the owner of the thread) is your favorite dev. I really feel the love now /sarcasm

Don't take offense. I love Bob since ALL the IHO ROMs use his kernel (minus yours of course, your kernel is quite wonderful). I don't even use Bob's ROM :D

I ain't offended. I was actually trying to be funny, but I often fail at making jokes (when I succeed, people are rolling on the floor for several minutes. Guess I just have a bipolar sense of humor)


And my pure build still uses Bob's kernel (but I was thinking of recompiling the iho one with support for new screens and using it, but I'm lazy..)
 
What rom? Miuigb didn't like it for some reason I think. Idk if any others have issues.
 
Have you tryed tvall kernel 0.2 its a litter more similar to bobz kernel its his 2nd release I believe!!

tvall, does your kernel work on cm9?

Short answer: Nope.

Long answer: it might, but it doesn't have any of the changes for ics. it'll probably boot, but battery life will suffer and varicose things may be broken. You can try it, but I don't recommend it (I think I posted an ics kernel on this thread, however. Search for it.)

I will not be releasing anything for ics until quattrimus hits beta and/or tdm releases that shiny new 3.0 kernel he was talking about (I'll definitely play with that)

I'm posting this conversation between tvall and I for the benefit of everyone who have flashed zv9. I'd been helping him test some changes to his kernel to circumvent the reboot problem experienced on iho roms with zv9. In my tests, he seems to be on the right track so things are looking promissing.

After several days of testing I can tell you your kernel doesn't reboot during SMS activities. However I had several full kernel locks, frequent freezing and lag. It's probably the way my handset is configured and it isn't what I was testing for, but I thought you could use a more detailed dataset. I've gone back to bobz because the occasional reboot is less disruptive to me than the performance I experienced with yours. Either way, it's another step closer to a new kernel...

Thanks for testing.
Question, do you experience any of those locks and freezes with my current stable kernel?
Where is it posted? I haven't really run any kernel but bobz since June of last year.

On the thread about my roms and kernels in the second post.
It started as me patching the iho kernel the way I like my Linux, but others liked it. So I've been playing with it for a while. And you seem rather thorough in your testing. You'd do a good job on informing me if I actually accomplished something
Well, I had poor performance with the older build of your kernel as well, but I figured out why. It didn't much care for my link2sd configuration. Without link2sd, both kernels ran just fine. For the sake of completeness, this was my setup for testing:
OC @ 480/806 smartassV2, link2sd with an ext4 partition, on WiFi and 3G. First generation OV.
After finding that link2sd was causing the problems, I went back and repeated all the tests without it. The older kernel caused two reboots in the space of six hours. The newer kernel didn't cause any reboots (ran for two days)
Anyway I hope this data helps out.

Could you post the results of your testing on my thread so others can see? (I am lazy and dont feel like rewriting what youve written well enough)

I'd like to start by saying that ever since the zv9 update my phone has not been able to run any rom other than stock without reboots. And trust me I've tried them all. However, I can now say I've been running backside 4-17 with tvall's 0.2 kernel for two days with no reboots. Thanks tvall for giving my phone back!

Well... the only kernel I did anything for zv9 for was marked as v0.3.0 and posted somewhere on this thread. The other versions should behave with zv9 the same as BobZhome's

I'm only posting this because tvall said the 0.2 kernel shouldn't be helping anything. It's such an intermittent problem, you could have two days of nothing and the third day could be nothing but lag or reboots.

There is a Mirage 4/03 build here (VM670-CM7.2-RC1-IHO-04032012_MiRaGe.zip) and a kernel (http://forums.androidcentral.com/op...vm9-radio-update-restored-29.html#post1712739) you can apply to that, worked great for me.
